The HTC Kaiser (aka TyTn II, P4550, AT&T 8925 Tilt) is the “holy grail” of smartphone-ing. It packs the “perfect” feature set that has eluded mobile fanatics for some time now – and the AT&T subsidized version of the Kaiser is almost here.
The European HTC Kaiser TyTn II has already launched, so we already know that the Kaiser’s blazing 400Mhz CPU, 2.8-inch touchscreen, 3 megapixel autofocus camera, GPS, WiFi, 3G (HSDPA), gobs of RAM/ROM, and full QWERTY keyboard – all powered by Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional – is the “holy of holies” that we’ve been searching for.
AT&T should be dropping their own version of this baddest-ass smartphone sometime soon – as the AT&T 8925 Tilt (a fitting name, given the Kaiser’s cool, tilting slider-display). We still don’t have a hard launch date, but if online retailer Negri Electronics is on the money, we could see AT&T drop the “Tilt” on us come September 30. Negri is taking pre-orders on the AT&T 8925 and 8900 (without camera) and claims that they’ll have these badboys in stock by the end of the month. They’ve even posted pics of what seems to be an AT&T-branded Kaiser.
We’ll keep you updated on the latest AT&T 8925 Tilt developments as we hear of them. It would be a shame if our Canadian friends got their hands on a Rogers Wireless-branded HTC Kaiser before us Yankees. The AT&T Tilt is so close we can taste it – and it tastes just like we expected. Slightly QWERTY-sweet with a kick of 3G-spice.
Now we just need some pics of a T-Mobile branded HTC Kaiser – that would be nice.
